Adjusting footwell temperature?

[slothinker]

Here's the current write-up on the 2024 Porsche related to optional 4-zone heating … nada about front footwell heating options:


Advanced 4-Zone Climate Control
With a high-resolution 5.9-inch touchscreen display in the rear. Separate control of temperature, fan speed and air distribution settings possible in four zones (adjustable from the front and rear seats). An active carbon fine dust filter traps particles, pollen and odors and thoroughly filters fine dust out of the outside air before it can reach the interior. Depending on the equipment, the rear seat heating can be controlled via the rear touchscreen display.

Is there no way to activate &/or adjust front driver and passenger footwell heat without having paid up for rear seat heating? (4-zone control)?

Nope. You can only alter the air flow.

If you get a chance … would like to know what your service department has to say.

Its not booked in till mid December, but I will update the thread then.

When I phoned they said its down on their systems to be looked at when it comes in for the other recall.

Something along the lines of needing to check a cabin temperature sensor?? - that will need replacing if faulty.

Nope. You can only alter the air flow.

If one sets their Taycan cabin temperature to 27° C. (80 f.), doesn't that affect the temperature of air coming out of the footwell vents above driver/passenger legs? If not, how do you adjust air flow to the footwells independent of a.c./heat settings?

I agree it's mentioned on the forum but it was hard to believe that useful footwell heating would not be standard on a premium car such as any Porsche

Exhibit A: folding mirrors.

For a full explanation and guidance you should consult the Owner's manual and related videos.

Air flow can be controlled manually as in any other vehicle. In the Taycan simply touch one of the 3 icons for head, legs or feet to direct the flow in the AC control screen.

Yep. fiddle about with aircon individual mode and move the cone thingies around.

FYI… it’s not the cone thingies that get the air to your feet. It’s a button in the bottom left corner.

The OP is interested in Footwell Temperature not Air Flow to the Footwell @Hirschaj .
I posted above in post #27 that only 4-Zone has an option to control it as shown in the image below from the manual and this is how it looks and works on my MY23 with 4-Zone:

I know exactly what the OP is interested in. I was replying to a different comment.
